@EndMyki Yesterday’s sunset

Holidaying done right 😌

@KJF239 @EastLeakeAC Thank you! I’m not familiar with that one! Will have to add it to my “to try” list!

@bear48 @EastLeakeAC It’s DCPIP with leaf extract. Different wavelengths of light by using the coloured filters. Time how long it takes to decolourise as the DCPIP gets reduced

Y13 investigating wavelength of light and rate of photosynthesis @EastLeakeAC

@EndMyki Thinking of you lovely. Hope you’re okay?

@EndMyki I’ve known about this for a while. There is a tour that runs from the environment office in Inverloch. dinosaurdreaming.monash.edu

Chasing dinosaur fossils! Such a thrill!

@EndMyki What a difference a bit of blue sky and sun can make!

@TeacherMelb Wow! Impressive 👏

@TeacherMelb Back burning lovely

@TeacherMelb Congratulations! Totally our loss but very happy for you!

@TeacherMelb YOU HAVE A TWIN?!!! I feel like maybe I knew that but had completely forgotten 🤔

@TeacherMelb Whatcha doing there?

@jodyflawson Was quite straight forward. Got to introduce agar plates and streaking to Y9s. Needed about an hour exposed to sunlight. Yeast from Southern Biological. Cheaper for lab techs to make up the cultures and agar compared with buying the kits.

Year 9 Science and been trying out a new practical! Think I’m in love 🥰 UV sensitive yeast - the cells die if exposed to UV light. Final set of results: Zone 1-sunlight, Zone 2-hidden under foil, Zones 3&4-different brands of SPF 50+ sunscreen.

@BeaulieuBio @MrsDrSarah Ooo. I wasn’t aware of that trick! Making a note for our kidney dissections later this term!

@MrsDrSarah Did the ol’ hydrogen peroxide trick, and those nephrons were stunning!

@miniPCR Thank you. We were using 40mL so will try with less. We were also using distilled water and will now try with tap water in case that’s the issue.

@bear48 How much running buffer are you using? We recommend sticking to 30-35 mL

@miniPCR we are running your blueGel electrophoresis and the gel is getting air bubbles. Any suggestions for problem-solving? Thanks in advance.
